Boehner says he supports the President. Then it goes on to say how he is going to have to sell it to his fellow republicans who are against it. The reason I ask you if you read it is because you are under the misguided assumption that the GOP wants this war. Where did you get this information? Right now there are more GOP voices decrying military action then are cheer-leading the President.

Let me take a wild guess, you can see into their hearts and know they really really want to bomb Syria?

I think you underestimate smart weapons. We're not sending B-52s into Laos, here.

Smart weapons didn't get saddam. That came down to good old fashioned boots on the ground foot work. I very much doubt our booming runs would slow down the killing and violence in Syria. We are just going to make things worse.

To be fair, by the time we got around to finding Saddam it was just icing on a the cake, a nice a PR moment, but the Iraqi regime had been so thoroughly demolished that even if we'd never found him, he'd never have been relevant again. We could have saved a ton of money in Iraq if we'd just hit it from above and through missile strikes, destroyed the military targets and infrastructure, and driven the Hussein family into hiding, and then let the Iraqis rebuild on their own.

There are a LOT of proxies involved here. If Syria/Hezbollah launch a deadly attack against Israel--what makes you so sure the USA and Russia will stay out of it?

Syria and Israel have fought several wars since Syria became a Soviet/Russian client, and each time resulted in Israeli aircraft doing victory loops around Damascus. Russia ain't done dick in any of them. The real question is what makes you think that THIS TIME it'll be different?

Russia knows that if they start messing with Israel they'll face a lot of trouble from us, and it isn't worth it. Russia is driven by money these days, same as China, ideology takes a back seat to profit, and they know that if it comes down to it doing anything that risks direct military conflict with the US is very bad for their future earnings prospects.

Eventually someone is gonna start bombing us back.

Who? Syria? You kiddin me? You think Russia's gonna try something?

I'd rather not find out. We already lost the twin towers and a good bit of the 4th and 5th amendments...what else has to go boom here at home before people realize action have consequences?

Give me a break with that crap, Weav. You know better.

I know that if we keep bombing the middle east then eventually things will blow up here at home.

So when the GOP leadership says they stand for something...like say bombing Syria...that doesn't mean the GOP is in favor of said action? If the GOP leadership isn't actually running the republican party than who is? I'd really like to know!

Those who do not believe that actions have consequences are those who got us in the economic disaster. Those who do not believe that every action has a reaction don't even believe in a scientific fact.

You are dealing with a closed mind, Weav. Cameron will never admit he is wrong.
